一、阅读下列短文,从题后所给的 A、B、C、D 四个选项中选出最佳答案。(每题2分,共20分)
A
Nowadays, more and more people pay with cards or phones instead of cash. It's very convenient. But a new study shows that this convenience may have a problem: we might forget how much we have spent.
Researchers did an interesting test. They asked people to buy things - some used cash, others used cards. Later, they asked these people how much they spent. The results were clear: people who used cash remembered the amount much better than those who used cards.
Dr. Emma Brown, who led the study, explained: "Paying with cards is too easy and fast. You don't need to think much. But when you use cash, you actually see the money leaving your hand. This makes spending feel more real, so you remember it better."
This is called the "pain of paying". Using cash feels more "painful" because you physically give away your money. This feeling makes you think carefully before spending. Card payments don't have this "pain", so people might spend too much.
The researchers don't say we should stop using cards completely. Instead, they advise us to be more careful about our spending. For example, we can check our bank information more often, or set limits on how much we can spend. The important thing is to understand that different ways of paying can affect our spending habits.
1. What is the main finding of the research?
A. Card payments are safer than cash
B. Card payments may make us forget our spending
C. Cash will not be used in the future
D. People are spending less money now
【答案】B
【解析】文章第一段明确提到“But a new study shows that this convenience may have a problem: we might forget how much we have spent”,且第二段实验结果进一步证明“用现金的人比用卡的人更清楚记得花费金额”,核心研究发现即信用卡支付可能让我们忘记花费金额。A选项“信用卡支付比现金安全”、C选项“现金未来会被淘汰”、D选项“人们现在花费更少”均未在文中提及,故选B。
【考查知识点】细节理解题,要求学生捕捉研究的核心结论,定位原文关键信息。
2. The word "physically" in paragraph 4 is closest in meaning to:
A. in your body B. in your mind C. with money D. with cards
【答案】A
【解析】结合上下文“Using cash feels more 'painful' because you physically give away your money”,用现金时需要亲手交出钱,“physically”强调“身体上、实际地”,与“in your body”(身体上)含义最接近。B选项“在脑海里”、C选项“用金钱”、D选项“用信用卡”均不符合语境,故选A。
【考查知识点】词义猜测题,要求学生结合上下文语境,推断生词含义。
3. Why does cash payment feel more "painful"?
A. Because it's not convenient B. Because it’s easy to get stolen
C. Because you actually hand over money D. Because it takes a long time to count
【答案】C
【解析】原文第四段明确提到“Using cash feels more 'painful' because you physically give away your money”,即现金支付更“痛苦”是因为需要实际交出钱。A选项“不方便”、B选项“容易被偷”、D选项“数钱耗时”均未作为“痛苦”的原因提及,故选C。
【考查知识点】细节理解题,要求学生定位原文因果关系,排除干扰选项。
4. According to Dr. Brown, why do people remember cash payments better?
A. Because they need to sign their names
B. Because they see the money leaving their hands
C. Because cash payments are always larger
D. Because they receive paper receipts
【答案】B
【解析】根据第三段Dr. Brown的解释“But when you use cash, you actually see the money leaving your hand. This makes spending feel more real, so you remember it better”,可知人们更清楚记得现金支付,是因为能看到钱从手中离开。A选项“需要签名”、C选项“现金支付金额总是更大”、D选项“能收到纸质收据”均未在文中提及,故选B。
【考查知识点】细节理解题,要求学生捕捉人物观点类关键信息,匹配题干问题。
5. What do researchers suggest people do?
A. Stop using card payments completely
B. Check bank information regularly and set spending limits
C. Use only cash for all purchases
D. Spend more money to promote the economy
【答案】B
【解析】原文最后一段提到“they advise us to be more careful about our spending. For example, we can check our bank information more often, or set limits on how much we can spend”,即研究者建议人们更关注消费,比如经常查看银行信息、设定消费限额。A选项“完全停止使用信用卡支付”与原文“The researchers don't say we should stop using cards completely”矛盾;C选项“只使用现金消费”、D选项“多花钱促进经济”均未在文中提及,故选B。
【考查知识点】细节理解题,要求学生捕捉原文建议类信息,准确匹配选项。
B
With the development of the Internet, online shopping has become a common part of people’s daily life. Many people prefer to buy things online because it is fast and easy. However, a recent study shows that online shopping may lead to impulsive buying (冲动消费), which means people often buy things they don’t really need.
To find out how online shopping affects people’s buying habits, researchers from a local university did a study with 200 volunteers. They divided the volunteers into two groups: Group A shopped online for a week, and Group B shopped in physical stores (实体店) for the same time. During the study, researchers recorded what the volunteers bought and asked them if they really needed the things after shopping.
The results of the study were surprising. Group A bought 30% more unnecessary things than Group B. Dr. Li Ming, the leader of the study, said: “When shopping online, people don’t have to touch or see the products in person. They just click the mouse easily, and the process is too fast. This makes them less likely to think carefully before buying, so they often buy things they don’t need.”
The study also found that people who shop online for more than 2 hours a day are more likely to have impulsive buying habits. In addition, discounts (折扣) and “limited-time offers” on online shopping platforms often encourage people to buy more. The researchers suggest that people should make a shopping list before shopping online and avoid shopping when they are tired or emotional, as these feelings can also lead to impulsive buying.
6. What is the main topic of the study?
A. How to shop online cheaply
B. How online shopping affects people’s buying habits
C. The differences between online and offline shopping
D. Why people prefer online shopping
【答案】B
【解析】文章第二段明确提到“To find out how online shopping affects people’s buying habits, researchers from a local university did a study...”,全文围绕“网购对人们消费习惯的影响”展开,包括实验过程、结果及建议。A选项“如何便宜网购”、C选项“网购与线下购物的区别”、D选项“人们喜欢网购的原因”均不是研究的核心主题,故选B。
【考查知识点】主旨大意题,要求学生把握研究类文章的核心话题,理解文章整体逻辑。
7. How did the researchers do the study?
A. They asked 200 volunteers to shop online for a week.
B. They divided 200 volunteers into two groups and compared their shopping results.
C. They recorded the volunteers’ daily spending for a month.
D. They asked volunteers to make a shopping list before shopping.
【答案】B
【解析】原文第二段提到“they divided the volunteers into two groups: Group A shopped online for a week, and Group B shopped in physical stores for the same time. During the study, researchers recorded what the volunteers bought...”,即研究者将200名志愿者分为两组,对比他们的购物结果。A选项“让200名志愿者网购一周”仅描述了其中一组,不完整;C选项“记录一个月的日常花费”与原文“一周”不符;D选项“让志愿者购物前列清单”是研究者的建议,而非实验方法,故选B。
【考查知识点】细节理解题,要求学生捕捉研究实验的具体方法,准确理解实验设计。
8. What does the underlined word “impulsive” in paragraph 1 probably mean?
A. 谨慎的 B. 冲动的 C. 理性的 D. 合理的
【答案】B
【解析】结合上下文“online shopping may lead to impulsive buying (冲动消费), which means people often buy things they don’t really need”,括号内的“冲动消费”是对“impulsive buying”的解释,由此可推断“impulsive”意为“冲动的”。A选项“谨慎的”、C选项“理性的”、D选项“合理的”均与语境相反,故选B。
【考查知识点】词义猜测题,要求学生结合括号内的解释和上下文语境,推断生词含义。
9. What can we infer from the study results?
A. People who shop in physical stores never buy unnecessary things.
B. Online shopping makes people think more carefully before buying.
C. Shopping in physical stores is better than online shopping.
D. Online shopping is more likely to cause impulsive buying than physical shopping.
【答案】D
【解析】原文第三段提到“Group A bought 30% more unnecessary things than Group B”,Group A是网购组,Group B是线下购物组,由此可推断“网购比线下购物更可能导致冲动消费”。A选项“线下购物从不买不必要的东西”过于绝对,原文未提及;B选项“网购让人们购物前更谨慎”与原文“this makes them less likely to think carefully before buying”矛盾;C选项“线下购物比网购好”未在文中提及,研究者未否定网购,仅提醒避免冲动消费,故选D。
【考查知识点】推理判断题,要求学生根据实验结果进行合理推断,避免绝对化表述和过度推断。
10. What do the researchers suggest people do to avoid impulsive buying online?
A. Stop shopping online completely.
B. Make a shopping list and avoid shopping when tired or emotional.
C. Buy only things with discounts.
D. Shop online for more than 2 hours a day.
【答案】B
【解析】原文最后一段提到“The researchers suggest that people should make a shopping list before shopping online and avoid shopping when they are tired or emotional”,即研究者建议人们网购前列清单,避免疲劳或情绪波动时购物。A选项“完全停止网购”未提及;C选项“只买有折扣的东西”与原文“折扣会鼓励人们多买”矛盾;D选项“每天网购超过2小时”与原文“每天网购超过2小时更易冲动消费”不符,故选B。
【考查知识点】细节理解题,要求学生捕捉原文建议类信息,准确匹配选项。
